Hello All !!!

I am Overjoyed to post this topic here about my first Heli - The Hiller 450V2 From RcBazaar.
I didnt have much experience or interest in Heli's before and was only concentrating on Fixed wings all these years. But since the time i saw the huge number of spares in Rcb for helis, I thought of giving it a try. So finally i got a 450V2 from them a month ago but was only able to finish it only yesterday due to busy college work. I dont think i would've been able to build it without the videos from sujju sir! Thanx a lot sir.Excellent Videos!!

I took her for flying today and had an hour full of enjoyment. It's too gud, very very very stable, the tail is holding gud and the motor is too powerful and was able to hover and go around the place with her even though i'm new to Heli's.

Specs-
Motor - Odin 3800kv From Rcb
Esc - Avionic 40A from Rcb
Batt - TREXPRO 2200mah from Rcb
Cyclic Servos - 9gm Metal gear 90MG from Rcb
Tail Servo - High speed D590 from Rcb
Gyro - AV401 from Rcb
Blades - 450 size wooden blades

Will post pics and videos soon....

i would mount the gyro under the boom block. in a crash there is a chance the flybar can destroy it. same with tail servo i would put on other side of the boom

Hey Jatayu, pleasure meeting you at RC Bazaar that evening, I too now a proud owner of this (V3 sport). I am still building it, Please advice how to fit survos on it? Screws came with servos can't be used  :banghead:

Hey Asin, i too completed a build of the v2 yesterday, not sure if the swash interactions are right and i'm still working on this.

You'll find a set of black plastic nuts(more of a square but one edge is rounded)
You can fit a socket button head screw,6mm with the M2 specialty washer.

Download the Trex 450 manual available easily on the internet, you'll find this very useful and handy

@mirmoazam hey thanks, from where I can procure these screws??? And I have a Gyro I was using in my Belt-CP V2, can I use the same in it ? Because in it, I am using a 24g, digital servo. :help:
:-)

mirmoazam

These Screws and Nuts should be with the kit you bought, Just search for it patiently as it might be messy with different packets and loads of screws everywhere, this is were the Align T Rex manual comes in handy as it gives detailed figures that include tiny screws.
If you aren't able to find any then you can make use of the unused servo horns( Just an opinion)


Yes you can use the same Gyro,but you haven't mentioned the brand. Make sure to check and set the Servo setting to Digital. One tiny Switch is what that needs to be checked and
displaced
if required.
